This post benchmarks a Vebble Singapore AMD instance (AMD EPYC Milan, 4 vCPU / 8GB RAM / 120GB disk, KVM). Disk performance peaks around 2.5 GB/s, and overseas bandwidth reaches close to 1 Gbps. China Unicom connectivity is poor and the free-month promotion leads to a mediocre real-world experience, though the provider’s custom panel looks much nicer than generic WHMCS setups.

Hands-on benchmark of Upstream’s UK AMD EPYC 73F3 VPS with a free one‑year plan. Covers plan specs, Yabs and “all‑in‑one” script benchmarks, CPU, memory, NVMe disk performance, IPv4/IPv6 networking, streaming unlocks and routing/latency results, to see whether this tiny VPS is worth picking up for fun.

Sharon dropped a JP Lite “toy chicken” VPS on Chinese New Year’s Eve: $1/month for 1 vCPU, 1 GB DDR5 RAM, 20 GB SSD and 1 TB @ 1 Gbps on a VirtFusion panel. It’s expected to be wiped in about a month, routes are still being tuned, and HK/JP/SG have private networking. Includes Fusion Monster script benchmarks, streaming unlock tests and China backhaul traces—don’t overpay scalpers.

This post walks you through deploying a private DeepLX translation API with a single Docker command. It compares DeepL with traditional translators and LLM-based translation, explains how to bypass official limits, and shows how to benchmark speed and concurrency. You’ll also learn how to test the API and integrate it into the Immersive Translate browser extension for automatic page and Twitter translation.

Benchmark of the Oplink US AMD 7950X Premium VPS: 6 vCPU, 16 GB RAM, 500 GB NVMe, 32 TB @ 10 Gbps for $29.95 plus setup. The provider uses a setup fee to filter customers, waived during Black Friday, with a 3‑day full refund policy. Tests show extremely strong disk performance and generally high‑quality neighbors, but only average network performance overall.

Hands-on benchmark of Haruka’s UK pre-sale VPS: despite a Ryzen-looking title it’s actually based on E5, managed via the VirtFusion panel. The 1C/512MB/6GB/1TB@1Gbps plan is just $8.99/year and supports doubling RAM via ticket. Includes CPU/IO benchmarks plus UK-region streaming unlock and native routing details.

This guide walks through setting up MetaTube, an open-source Japanese adult video scraper with multi-source metadata and actress profiles. Learn how to deploy the MetaTube server with Docker Compose, install and configure the Jellyfin plugin, and integrate it as a metadata provider for Jellyfin, Emby, and Plex to enhance your media library.

This post benchmarks Faconhost’s new high-spec Hong Kong Ryzen 9 7900X VPS on the Cloudie network. It covers plan specs, pricing, VirtFusion control panel, and detailed performance results from YABS, UnixBench, Geekbench, Monster, and PassMark. Despite excellent I/O and CPU scores, the very strict TOS (paid PUSH/IP changes, CPU limits, no Windows) makes it hard to recommend.

This guide walks you through deploying a Palworld multiplayer server with Docker, from basic hardware and network requirements to pulling and running the image, configuring data persistence and port mapping, and editing PalWorldSettings.ini inside the container so changes take effect after a restart.

Hands-on benchmark of NordicVM’s new UK AMD Ryzen 9 7900 VPS: around 3000 Geekbench 6 single-core score, VirtFusion control panel, 2 vCPU / 2GB DDR5 RAM, 50GB PCIe 4.0 NVMe, unmetered 1Gbps bandwidth at €6.99/month. Includes lscpu output, virtualization features, and multiple benchmark suites as reference for buyers.

This post walks you through building a network quality monitoring stack using Smokeping, Prometheus, and Grafana. Learn how to deploy each component with Docker, configure monitoring targets, push latency and packet loss data via Pushgateway, enable Prometheus persistence, and import Grafana dashboards to visualize real‑time network delay and loss across multiple ISPs.

Hands-on benchmark of Scaleway’s Paris Ampere ARM instances. Covers plan specs, lscpu/Yabs output, disk and network performance, plus streaming unlocks and routing to China. Despite a temporary 50% promo code, the overall price‑performance is mediocre versus competitors; no clear advantage, not recommended. Better stick with Stardust.
